Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir

medium-paced

4.25

I found this hard to get into, but I really enjoyed it by the end. Part of the reason I found it hard to get into was that there wasn't much explanation at the start about what the heck was going on; imagine my shock when I finished the book and found a whole glossary at the back, alongside heaps of other info (including how to pronounce characters' names). So, if you have a physical copy, consider turning to page 445 onwards for that (there aren't any spoilers from there onwards, but make sure you don't read page 444!).

On that note, I agree with other reviews that it was really hard to remember who was who, with all the characters using a mix of first names, last names, titles, and nicknames!
